Predicting primary outcomes of brain tumor patients with advanced neuroimaging MRI measures.
Article in Interdisciplinary neurosurgery : Advanced techniques and case management, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundAdvanced neuroimaging measures along with clinical variables acquired during standard imaging protocols provide a rich source of information for brain tumor patient treatment and management. Machine learning analysis has had much recent success in neuroimaging applications for normal and patient populations and has potential, specifically for brain tumor patient outcome prediction. The purpose of this work was to construct, using the current patient population distribution, a high accuracy predictor for brain tumor patient outcomes of mortality and morbidity (i.e., transient and persistent language and motor deficits). The clinical value offered is a statistical tool to help guide treatment and planning as well as an investigation of the influential factors of the disease process.
methodsResting state fMRI, diffusion tensor imaging, and task fMRI data in combination with clinical and demographic variables were used to represent the tumor patient population (n = 62; mean age = 51.2 yrs.) in a machine learning analysis in order to predict outcomes.

conclusionsThis study showed that advanced neuroimaging data with machine learning methods can potentially predict patient outcomes and reveal influential factors driving the predictions.
